Yikes. I was reading it while wondering at the old-school computer-game style, wondering what spoof purpose someone had created this for in the past year or two. Then I got to the punchline below the image.

It's distinctly distressing. I don't think I've seen actual official statements mention bullet 2, but other than that, haven't all seven of those been mentioned in post-9/11 or post-7/7 official notices?

Someone on the Deus Ex design team had a scary insight into the zeitgeist, anyway.

Maybe "Homeland Security" (what a joke!) could hire unemployed Americans to inspect all the thousands of containers that come in (un-inspected) every day.
